When accepting Variety’s Indie Impact Award at the Palm Springs Film Festival Saturday, The Fighter star joked that the trophy looked like a bong. That’s when he said: “I stopped smoking weed for my kids.”

“One day, we were driving and you could smell it from somewhere. My daughter asked what the smell was so I told her it was a skunk. Then she said, ‘Sometimes daddy smells like that!’ to me and my wife. So I knew I had to quit.”
